[Insight-users] Analyze format questions: incorrect files

[Hans Johnson]

Radkika,

I've the analyze reader in ITK can handle images created on any platform 
from any platform.  This is even regression tested every night, and I use 
it on both big and little endian machines all the time. I would 
guess that somehow your image was somehow created incorrectly.

Regards,
Hans
